EU FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT TIPS

Specific objective

Supporting theatrical distribution through transnational marketing, branding, distribution and exhibition of audio visual works.

ELIGIBLE ACTIONS

The Cinema Automatic Scheme works in two phases:

1. The generation of a potential fund, proportional to the number of paying admission tickets sold during the reference period (2014) for non-national European films in countries participating in the MEDIA Sub-programme, up to a fixed ceiling per film and adjusted for each country.

2. Reinvestment: the potential fund thus generated by each company must be reinvested in:

Module 1. the co-production of eligible non-national European films;

Module 2. the acquisition of distribution rights, for example by means of minimum guarantees, of eligible non-national European films; and/ or in

Module 3. editing costs (prints, dubbing and subtitling), promotion costs and publicity costs for eligible non-national European films.

Deadline

Generation: 30 April 2015

Reinvestments: within the deadline set out for each module and by 02 August 2016.
